In the latter part of the Meiji period, a woman
named Mifune Chizuko started the spiritual power
boom throughout Japan.
And that was because Professor Fukurai Tomokichi
of Teikoku University in Tokyo acknowledged her
powers to be real.
In September of 1910, a public experiment was
conducted before infamous scholars.
The scholars placed a paper with words on it in a steel box
and instructed Chizuko to read the words on it.
And Chizuko miraculously guessed it right.
However...
Didn't you know hat was written on the paper?
If you were in cahoots with Professor Fukurai...
Then it's not a hard thing to do.
Then the media turned around and called her a fraud.
Chizuko committed suicide by drinking poison.
And now, there's no way we can verify if she really possessed
spiritual powers or not.
Super Azusa 2...
That's going up.
Nagano Bullet Train... is expensive.
Isn't there anything cheap?
It's dangerous there!
How did you know that was going to fall?
How frightening...
"Ero kobo" (obscene studio)?
I'm exhausted... from the eight transfers and 130 stops.
Mom.
Oh, Naoko.
What did you want to tell me?
I've been hiding something from you all this time.
I am actually...
You already told me that you have shaman blood in you.
And that I have that blood in me.
It's something more important.
When I was still on the island.
I was very popular with the boys.
There were many boys who'd come to woo me with gifts.
With gift?
That's when your father appeared.
He was different from the others boys.
He was very classy.
Classy...
"Oh, lovely mademoiselle... "
"The time without you... "
"...feels like eternity."
"Oh, my loved one..."
They are foreigners.
His words of proposal were wonderful too.
Don't you want to hear it?
Not at all.
You recognize this, don't you?
It's an old character from the Kokumon Island.
A character that must not be voiced aloud.
So no one knows how to read it.
I told your father about this character, and he said.
"Oh, Mademoiselle...
"If no one knows how to read it..."
"Then we should decide on how to read it.
"I've just decided how to read it.
"A secret reading that is only for me."
Your father whispered its reading in my ear.
And that became his marriage proposal.
So what is the important thing that you wanted to tell me?
This is it.
What?
Naoko, the good part comes from now.
I wasted my time coming here.
That was such a big waste of time.
Where is it?
Excuse me.
A pig that can't fly is just a plain pig.
Detective Kojak... 50 years.
"Ueda, I told you not to let yourself in."
Well. I was in the neighborhood so I stopped by.
If I must say... you write very ugly.
"Oh, shut up!"
That was delicious!
Don't you want some too?
It's an ordinary container. Look, it's empty inside.
Doesn't it look delicious?
It's special milk from a flat-breasted cow.
There you go.
Don't examine it. I made it last night.
"Did you make this?"
"Not bad."
"It’s hard to tell it's a trick cup at this angle."
You don't have to drink it!
Did you want to drink it?
It's bitter.
I'm glad I didn't drink it.
This is the ordinary milk.
What did you make me drink?
Do you believe there's a spiritualist that can get
things, including water from thin air?
"Again?"
I'm Kitami, a middle school teacher from Oshimai village.
I look up to you as my teacher.
I am a physicist like you,
but I do not even come close to what you are.
What's important is that you do your best.
I've been waiting to hear that line from you.
A month ago, a woman named Hase Chikako came to the village.
She's originally from Oshimai village and 25 years ago, she was
able to get water out of thin air as a spiritualist.
Anyone who drank that water was cured of his illness.
A famous professor wanted to verify if that's true or not.
so he came from Tokyo to test her.
He secretly checked the water that Chikako produced.
Then...
It's sweet.
He found out that it was just sugared water.
The villagers called her a fraud and chased her out.
So why is she back in the village now?
To get her revenge for 25 years ago.
I met someone half a year ago.
And I was able to multiply the powers that I had.
Who is that someone?
That, I cannot tell you.
But you'll all be taught a lesson very soon.
Then she moved into a shed on the side of the forest.
The people of the nearby villages formed a voluntary
punitive group against her.
Then they headed to her shed to chase her out.
But no one came back.
They just vanished into thin air.
That's outrageous.
I fearfully went to the shed that Chikako was in.
Sensei, I am able to use my power
to transfer anything, including water from thin air wherever I want.
If you absolutely refuse to acknowledge my powers.
I'll insert a needle of this size into the center of your heart.
Then you will die shortly.
The time is...
Midnight-tonight.
"No matter how you look at it, Hase Chikako is a fraud."
"She must've hidden the needle in her hair."
Isn't that what you were going to say?
She doesn't have any spiritual powers.
Don't you want to meet Hase Chikako?
Leave!
My heart is beating fast all of a sudden.
Where's Yamada!?
Yamada,
did you see a bottle this size with white liquid in it?
I specially ordered it from the Amazon.
It's an energy drink made from piranha.
It cost me 30.000 yen.
She's been secretly giving it to me everyday.
That is why I can run up and down to the factory daily.
He even "runs" at night.
Piranha? Ueda!
I'll leave you young ones alone now.
She's acting strange.
Did you drink it?
Spit it out! Take it out! I want my 30.000 yen!
Piranha, best!
You should just say that you want to come along.
I have to do my best!
Thunder!
LION ROAR!
Are you The Hulk?
Teacher, so you had came!
LION DANCE!
This is the house of the village headman, Kanai Genzo.
Don't mind her.
Kishimoto! Kishimoto!
Dr. Ueda is here from Tokyo!
Please let Genzo and his wife know.
This is Dr. Ueda from Nihon Kagaku Gijutsu University and...
My employee, Yamada.
Why am I your employee?
Dr. Ueda is.
Twenty five years ago, you scholars called her a fraud.
That is why we kicked her out of the village.
He looks like the "Guts-chu" bug.
That is why we are going through hell with her now.
It is the face of the "Guts-chu" bug!
That is not my fault!
All scholars are alike!
Our son, Shogo, headed over to Chikako's shed with the
punitive group and never came back.
If you are going to claim spiritualists don't exist...
then put that woman in her place and get my son back.
Please let me know if you need anything.
The bath, bathroom, and well are on that side.
Kishimoto!
Coming!
Excuse me!
Where did you put the vase that was in my room?
The Missus said to put it away in the shed.
Don't move things around without my permission!
Don't touch anything in the house again!
If something should disappear in the house again.
I'm going to turn you in to the police!
Why is "Guts-chu" acting so big?
What is "Guts-chu"?
Ignore her.
Genzo is on the better.
His son, Shogo, whose whereabouts are unknown.
He would use his fathers influence to do evil things.
Some villagers are glad he is gone.
Why would you want to save him then?
Oh yes, regarding my matter.
What should i do?
What if a needle really ends up piercing my heart?
That's not possible.
Why don't you stay here tonight?
That should be safe!
I've been wanting to drink all night with you, Teacher.
Shall we do that?
Gladly!
Why?
Let’s continue.
Don To Koi…
Wrong, is DON TO KOI!
DON TO KOI!
Don't worry, what can pierce through needle from the thin air?
This kind of thing is non-existent.
You!
She always talks in her sleep.
Bandits!
No!
That scared me.
You scared me!
Five more minutes.
Let's practice the "Don to Koi" some more!
DON TO KOI!
Be serious a bit.
DON TO KOI...!
Excuse me..
Why is Kishimoto tolerating the abuse?
He was an orphan that was raised in this house.
He's indebted to this family for that, and
cannot complain.
Besides, there was an incident recently.
Incident?
Twenty million yen disappeared from the safe.
Kishimoto was the only one home at that time.
Genzo and his wife suspect Kishimoto.
I want to tell them that the most suspicious one is.
their son, Shogo!
Please don't tell anyone I said that.
One minute to go.
That fraudulent spiritualist can't touch you here!
"Don to Koi!"
Mr. Kitami!
Dr. Ueda, I feel strange.
Like there's something there.
And it feels good yet not.
It hurts.
It really hurts!
Mr. Kitami!
I will save you!
Mr. Kitami!
Ueda, don't die.
It's Mr. Kitami!
Thank you for coming.
It's up this way.
Why do we have to come here?
They said it was a case the local police can't handle.
It's this way. This way...
Yabe! Kikuchi!
Are you two here again?
Do you both have anything against us?
The victim is Kitami Noriaki.
He died of a heart attack.
We found a small needle puncturing his heart.
This is it.
A needle for embroidery.
No, this isn't a movie.
Stop it.
How did it get into his body?
We can't figure that out.
We couldn't find any external bruises.
What?
The culprit is Hase Chikako, the spiritualist.
Please arrest her.
I can't arrest a spiritualist for that reason.
Shogo might be dead too.
You should've been the one to go!
Missus, that's not nice.
What're you doing here?
Doing nothing?
Go and defeat Chikako!
What’s wrong?
Saw a hiei or some ghost?
Nothing.
Is that something else you saw?
Nothing!
Is that an amulet?
My late mother left it for me.
I was still a baby, so I don't remember it.
Excuse me!
I've been expecting you.
Just like it was 25 years ago.
Every time I do something a famous scholar comes.
What?
My powers are real. I'll prove it to you.
Kishimoto, imagine a white piece of paper in your mind.
Then write a character. any character, on it
in your imagination.
That will transfer into this box here.
A paper?
That's a character. very unlike you.
Tell them the character that you thought of.
"Happiness."
The character "ko" as in "kofuku" (happiness).
It's nothing to be embarrassed about.
Everyone has a right to happiness.
I don't believe it!
Wait a minute. That was just a trick you played.
That box you burned earlier had two layers.
Didn't you hide a blank piece of paper in it?
When you first showed us the box, you had the
paper concealed under a dummy board.
Then it'll appear as if the box is empty.
You claimed that his thought had transferred over,
and you overturned the box so that the dummy board will drop.
That will allow the white paper to appear.
You took that paper out and asked him what the character
that he thought of, was.
"Happiness."
After he told you what it is you wrote it on a piece of
paper so that we wouldn't be able to see that.
How would I do that?
You used invisible ink paper.
You had invisible ink on the tip of your finger.
You wrote the character with your fingertip and
put it over the fire, so that the character would appear.
The fire played two parts.
To burn the box of evidence.
And to bring out the word written in invisible ink
It's just as I thought.
I know what you...
You're an interesting young lady!
You're just afraid to accept spiritual powers!
What?
Anyone who drinks this poisonous water will die.
As in the needle that I transferred into Kitami's body
I can make this water enter a persons body.
I'll kill Kanai Genzo with this poison.
Tonight.
Wait a minute.
Ueda...?
I'm supposed to die tonight?
Don't worry. She's going to try to make you drink it.
Don't buy and eat any food from a suspicious person.
Why would I do that!?
I have a good idea.
Let's have Kishimoto eat whatever you eat, first.
That's not nice.
He's going to prepare the rabbit.
I'll start eating.
Wait. I'll eat too.
Are you sure?
No one had a chance to put poison in it.
I was watching the whole time.
Rabbit!
I'll test if there is poison too.
What's the use, if you don't eat it at the same time?
It's delicious.
I'll test it for poison!
Another poison test!
Never mind! I'm going back to my room!
Wait. Don't consume anything after this.
That's impossible.
I have to drink water before I go to sleep.
I'll have this tested too.
Kishimoto, drink it.
It's safe. It's just plain water.
Are you sure it's safe?
I can understand the Master's anxiety.
The poison could be applied on his cup, towel, or other
things, and it could go on and on endlessly.
Dear.
Dear! It's morning.
Dear.
Dear!
No...!
This is the location of the deceased.
Location…
Mr.Genzo…
Everyone, please be silent.
Location of the deceased.
Here comes the doctor...
There is “hidarinishikai” poison found in Mr.Genzo’s body.
Hidarinishikai” poison came from Russian.
The poison was under reformed.
Even the Tsar was also fear of the poison.
Tasteless, invisible and it enter the blood quickly.
Causing the blood vessels to suffer vasoconstriction.
The vasoconstriction will then lead to the lungs.
And causes the victim suffocates to dead.
The problem is, how this “hidarinishikai” poison entered his body?
The only thing Mr.Genzo can consumed in the room was only the water here.
We had made sure that the water is safe.
We tested drink before the incident.
The water was confirmed no poison.
Yamada, you are so troublemaker. Get lost!
These people here are not trustworthy!
Officer, please help me to arrest Chikako.
But we do not have any proof yet.
Officer, at least you save my son.
I only left him.
Officer, please help us.
You and I are the same kind.
Why do we have to go?
It's our duty to protect the common citizens.
My shoes will get dirty, so you go on alone from here.
This is the list of men who were in the punitive group.
Do a good job now.
It stinks! Feel like vomiting!
What an unbelievable giddiness.
For the sake of Japan, I will die for him.
Excuse me! I'm with the police and I want to ask
you some questions!
Last time, they send the scholar.
This time, is it a police?
Are you planning to arrest me?
Of course not. I have no proof against you.
But I have a duty to come here as the villagers ask.
Don't worry. I have no grudge against the police.
That's true! We should be friends, if anything!
A punitive group came here about a week ago.
But they were reported missing.
Will you tell me where they are?
How would I know!
But since you took the trouble to come here
I'll use my powers to find them for you.
Please tell me the names of the missing people.
And the characters to write their names.
Akikawa Keigo... The "aki" for "autumn" and "river."
"Kei" for "Yamato Keikoku" and "go" as in "Yamada Goichi."
Ike Fukuro... "Ike" as in "Ikebukuro" and the "fukuro"
as in the same "Ikebukuro."
Ito Juraku... Ehime Mikan... Kanai Shogo...
Kamakura Bakufu... Kichi Joji... Hibiya Toho... Nagasaki Kyoun...
Roppongi Hiruo... And the last one is Wanida Rakosuke.
That sounds like a foreigner.
Pick one.
Me?
Who else is there?
Stop.
When I place a curse on the name in the envelope...
That person will die.
He just passed away.
You know!
They came to punish me.
One deserves to die for it.
I'll save the others.
The curse on these burning envelopes has been lifted.
Go quickly!
You should find everyone else safe except this one.
These are poisonous water!
What are you doing?
It's strange, after all.
What do you mean? Nothing was detected in there.
The level of the water hasn't dropped at all.
Before he returned to his room...
The water level was here.
But it hasn't gone down at all.
Did he go to sleep without drinking his water?
Maybe he was too scared to.
Don't open there.
It went in the gaps.
It's hard to dry it.
I'm scared!
Who are you men?
We're with the punitive group.
Who did this to you?
As we were walking, we had a hard time breathing.
Then when we came to, we were in this position.
Are you all here?
There are ten of us here. We're one person short!
Shogo's missing.
What?
Look there!
That's Shogo!
Why only him?
"Kanai Shogo"
Why?
This continues will be curse...
Faster escape...
Shogo...
It's your fault for pulling his name!
Don't blame me for it.
Chikako had it planned all along to kill Shogo.
Weren't the other members of the punitive group
volunteers from the neighboring villages?
Chikako wanted to kill the Kanai family members.
How did she get Yabe to pull Shogo's envelope?
That's simple. She wrote Shogo's name on all of them.
She told you to pick one
Then she burned the rest.
That'll erase the evidence that she had written the same names.
I don't think she could have carried it out alone.
A human body was stabbed by a tree.
No man has the strength to do that.
Unless it's the Hulk or Jason.
Or even Yoshimura Michiaki.
It has to be someone very strong.
I'm going to see her.
Hey... That's dangerous.
I have something to verify.
Please let me speak to her alone.
I know you're out there!
What are you planning to do to Naoko?
Come out!
Why do you pretend to be a spiritualist?
I figured out how Genzo was poisoned.
Genzo was suspicious of everyone around him.
So he didn't drink the water in the pitcher.
He had his own water hidden in his room.
The poison was in there.
I know everything...
...that you did!
There's an explanation behind every miracle.
So what of it?
That doesn't prove there is no such thing as spiritual powers.
Besides...
There's only a slight distinction between
a spiritualist and non-spiritualist.
Sit down.
Twenty five years ago. I had a critically ill lover.
I was pregnant with his child.
The doctors said there was no hope for him, but I wanted to
encourage him to live, so I gave him sugared water and
called it "magic water."
Ironically, he started getting better with it.
It's just mental power.
Can you prove that?
Hearing - he rumors, the scholars from Tokyo came to see me.
They called me a fraud.
Shortly afterwards, he died.
He lost all hope in life.
Is that why you're out for revenge?
The villagers will die. one after another, until
Dr. Ueda acknowledges my powers as real.
You're lying. You only pretended to cast a curse.
Someone else killed Genzo and Shogo.
How did Kitami put the needle in his heart?
You must know by now...
That we share the same kind of powers.
You are a descendant of a Kokumon Island shaman.
It's your duty to curse any troublemakers to the island.
And that's how your tribe has protected the island.
Aren't you afraid of your own self?
Don't be silly.
I'll prove it to you!
This is an envelope of curse.
You must have a person or two that you hate.
Write the persons name on the paper and seal it.
If I am right, that person will die very shortly.
What are you hesitation?
If you believe supernatural power doesn’t exist,
then you have nothing to fear of.
This is the case on Chikako 25 years ago.
She didn't demand any fees whatsoever for the healing.
It was a bit mean to call her a fraud for it.
What is this?
The data on the late Kitami.
He's originally from a tiny island in the south.
See? Right here. Kokumon Island. Never heard of it.
Kokumon Island?
Yamada!
The punitive group is headed to Chikako's shed now
to burn it down with her in it.
Come on this side! We're burning the shed down!
Wait a minute!
Go right ahead!
Then it'll turn into a big forest fire and
you'll be the ones destroyed!
Hey!
What're you doing? Stop it!
Just set the fire!
Wait!
Move! She's a monster that cursed Shogo to death!
I’ll take her place in punishment.
Kishimoto?
Aren't you my mother?
This is an amulet that my mother left with me.
She left this paper in it. wishing me happiness.
And this is the paper that you wrote the character on.
It's the same handwriting.
He's right.
The handwriting looks exactly the same.
You couldn't bear Genzo's harsh treatment towards me.
That is why you took revenge. Isn't that right?
I don't know what you are talking about.
You are not my son.
I am merely getting my revenge for 25 years ago.
Mom...
Just set the place on fire!
Hurry!
Stop! Put that down!
Please call the police.
We'll keep an eye here.
Okay.
Chikako, let's go inside.
Chikako!
Look carefully.
This is the power of the curse that you cast on me.
Didn't you write my name?
You're a smart girl.
Just to prove the power of this envelope of curse...
I wouldn't kill myself.
And that's when my lie will be proven.
Isn't that what you thought?
That has no power.
You drank the poison on your own
The person who granted me my powers...
will be here for you soon.
That person is near you.
Chikako...!
What are you all doing?
Haven't you realized it yet?
She was talking about us.
We came from your home island, Kokumon Island.
A sense of foreboding...
Hey, there is no one here.
That’s strange. They were here just now.
Chizuko?
Mom!
Please don’t die!
Where had all others gone to?
Cursed of an envelope…
Mifune Chizuko.
This is Yamada’s handwriting.
Why is it so?
Mom…
Yamada!
You can’t run away.
You're on an uninhabited island, far from Tokyo.
Why did you bring me here?
We need your powers for our tribe to survive.
When the waves of modernization came mercilessly pushing its way
in during the Meiji era, those who tried to fight it were
banished from Kokumon Island.
We are the survivors of the Kurotsu branch family.
I'm the head of the Kurotsu branch family, Kurotsu Kikuo.
He's my cousin, Kurotsu Yasuo.
This is my 2nd cousin, Kurotsu Tameiho.
This is my cousin, Kurotsu Shimeiho.
Cousin two, Kurotsu Hanaho.
Cousin three, Kurotsu Tanaho.
Still cousin, Kurotsu Jikawo.
This is also cousin two, Kurotsu Masuho.
Next cousin, Kurotsu Kasuho.
Far distance cousin, Kurotsu Kei.
Uncle, Kurotsu Kamato.
Uncle two, Kurotsu Meikan-San.
Uncle three, Kurotsu Kyito.
Brother-in-law, Kurotsu Unise.
Brother-in-law, two Kurotsu Heida-iko.
Nephew, Kurotsu Heiyisi.
Nephew two, Kurotsu Yigi.
Nephew three, Kurotsu Jank.
Nephew Four, Kurotsu Toru.
Nephew Five, Kurotsu Harison.
My son-in-law, Kurotsu Digo.
Tokyo student, Otoshida Satoshi.
No need to introduce all of them…
These are my branch family.
You have the shaman blood running in you.
We'll be giving you a test.
If you do not have the shaman powers in you,
then there's no need to keep you alive.
We've spent money to bring you here.
This is a sacred cloth from Kokumon Island.
It's able to awaken the powers of a spiritualist.
Hey, I'm not a sunshine doll.
There are red and blue balls.
I'll place them in this jar and mix them together.
I want you to tell me the color of the ball in my hand.
Don't touch
Don't peek.
Use your spiritual powers.
If you say it's red. I'll place it in this one.
And if you say it's blue, I'll place it in this one.
If you should make even a single error,
we'll have to kill you.
That's not fair.
Is it red or it blue?
Red.
Is it red or blue?
Blue.
Red.
Blue.
Red.
Bring another cup.
Blue.
Red.
That should do it.
Pray to the sacred cloth.
Uncover the cups.
How did that happen?
You are a real spiritualist.
You can’t go back to your ordinary lifestyle anymore.
What's going to happen to me now?
We want you to curse some people to death.
It's your duty to curse the troublemaker to the island.
But first... Don't you recognize this?
The statue of God's elephant.
The ears and mouth are different.
Look carefully.
It has something very precious, sealed.
A powerful weapon that our ancestors had created.
This is the island that your parents had drifted to,
after they escaped from Kokumon Island.
That's when your mother sealed the weapon that
she ran off with from Kokumon Island.
To break that seal a five syllable word
must be chanted before this elephant statue.
We want you to break that seal.
Why should I do that?
If you can't do that, there's no use in keeping you
I know you're out there. Show yourself.
I'm sure you already know why I am here.
I was ordered by the Kurotsu branch family of Kokumon Island
to keep an eye on you.
What have you done to my daughter?
If you will tell me the five syllable word
to break the seal. I'll guarantee her safety.
Do you think I'd believe that?
That's up to you.
I understand. I'll tell you.
But it's a dangerous word.
Just by saying it in your mind, you can be harmed.
I'll put it in this envelope.
Open it when you reach the island.
She is a real spiritualist.
When her powers are awakened, she'll be beyond your control.
I checked everywhere, but Yamada is nowhere around.
If she's asleep, I should be able to hear her.
I found out something odd about the punitive group.
There's no one by these names in any of the villages.
Wasn't Kitami from the Kokumon Island?
What about it?
Kokumon Island...
Dr. Ueda?
I wanted to ask you some questions on Kokumon Island.
To think there's this great outdoor bath on this island.
Bald head power!
What's that?
Open that Madison bag.
That's a huge sum of money!
November 29th.
Could this be the money stolen from the Kanai's house safe?
The theft occurred two days after this date.
I know!
The culprit is the owner of this bag.
I'm glad I have flat breasts.
It's a deadend.
That island is dangerous.
I wouldn't advise you to go there.
It's dangerous. Let's turn back.
You'll end up dying.
We'll end up all dying.
It's the statue of God's elephant...
So this is it.
Open sesame!
Open door!
I guess it won't be that easy.
Ueda! I mistook you for a mountain gorilla!
Don't be silly!
Your mother told me about this island.
Didn't the Kokumon men bring you here by force?
Let's get out of here.
Chikako might've died because of me...
She drank poison on her own.
In return for helping her get her revenge..
They used her as a tool to comer you.
They tested me to see if I had spiritual powers.
They just used a simple trick for that.
Did you seriously believe you had spiritual powers?
Why did Kitami die then?
He died on his own.
What?
Listen carefully. He was from the Kokumon Island.
He was one of them.
He had a small needle implanted by his heart.
That night, he pushed that needle towards his heart.
His death can't be proven as homicide.
So the other murders were also carried out in the
pretense of a curse.
As long as the mystery of is death remains unsolved.
no one can clearly deny the power of the curse.
Are you saying he sacrificed himself just for that?
Who would do such a thing?
I wouldn't put it pass them!
After all, they are...
From the same Kokumon Island as me?
Are you saying they are unpredictable, stupid people?
Chikako was right, after all.
You just don't want to acknowledge things that
you cannot explain.
Come! Can't you trust me?
Open jar!
Move door!
What are you doing?
It doesn't concern you.
I'm curious, so explain it to me.
Then I won't bother with you anymore.
Something that my ancestor spiritualists made.
is sealed behind this door.
I have to find the five syllable word to break
the seal to open the door.
Don't you know how to solve things systematically
You cant just guess blindly.
For instance,
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah-e.
Then you keep going on until you reach the end, which is.
Un-un-un-un-un
You may know how many possibilities.
How long do you think that is going to take?
I'll help you.
We'll write down where we left off at, so that we
can continue where we left off later.
I can do it myself.
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah-e.
Ah-ah-ah-ah-u.
Hey.
Be quiet!
Ah-ah-ah-ah-a.
I understand.
I'm one of the top five physicist up for the Nobel
If you honestly think you are a spiritualist,
and you plan to do as they want you to,
then you and I will be foes hereafter.
I won't come to save you ever again.
You'll eventually become foes with that nitwit professor.
Come here.
Yamada, that fool.
Sensei!
My mother was cursed to death by that Yamada Naoko.
What are you saying?
In that case...
Why were you hiding this?
I had my young men follow you right after that.
Did you have any young men?
Then they said you upped and left for the southern island
There are a lot of bad tumors about this island
Thank you for your hard work.
This is Asst. Police Inspector, Oshiro Satoshi.
We've received complaint about Kurotsu branch activities on this island.
We've been investigate them for a long time.
Where are they?
Please look there.
"Leave immediately."
"We've obtained a real spiritualist."
"An iwai (celebration) will be coming shortly."
It's read as horoi (curse).
By real spiritualist, don't they mean. Yamada Naoko?
This is just a stupid threat.
That's not true.
We secretly landed on the island last night.
They didn't know that we are here.
If you defend her, you'll be just as guilty.
Ah-ho-u-e-ze.
Ah-ho-u-e-zo.
Ah-ho-u-e-da (stupid Ueda)
It's time for me to go back.
Ah-ho-u-e-da (stupid Ueda)
Is the five syllable word In there?
Yes.
Good job, Minakata.
Please open it.
What's the meaning of this?
A word that must never be voiced.
A word that no one knows how to read.
It's meaningless.
You are...
Your mother has caused me great embarrassment.
I want to know how this is read.
How would I know?
Stop acting dumb.
Are both, mother and child, going to make a fool of me?
That's too lenient!
Minakata, you're being too soft with her!
I want you to curse that Dr. Ueda to death.
This is...
You cant do it?
Which means, you acknowledge you have supernatural powers.
Which makes you one of us.
Will you write?
"Ueda Jiro."
The north winds are cold on this southern island
North winds, that's not fair.
Winds from the northern country...
That's not fair.
This is a great place!
You can drink, eat, and swim!
And the best part is, we can expense all of it!
I don't know about that.
What are you saying?
Why do you think I brought you, an elite, along?
Do you want to be killed?
You're coming out strong, aren't you, Yabe?
Stop!
We're with Edomon College.
That sounds fake.
We're with the police.
Tokyo Metropolitan Police? An elite too!
I'm sorry.
I'm amazed you found us here.
Arrest them quickly!
What happened to your leg?
I slipped at the cliff there.
Strange things have been happening since we came.
We even received a threat.
This place is cursed.
Arrest them quickly!
Will you look at this?
We brought it with us from Oshimai Village.
Do you know who this belongs to?
That's Shogo's.
He was using it from the "Waratte li Tomo."
The money stolen from the Kanai family's safe
was found Inside this.
What?!
Kanai Shogo stole the money from home and blamed you.
I find it hard to believe that Shogo would do that.
You must be the support that the police sent
to deal with the dangerous characters on this island.
How nice of the Police Commissioner
to send such elite officers here!
Are you referring to me?
They're a dangerous group. with spiritualist
Yamada Hanako as their leader.
Her name is Yamada Naoko!
Naoko!
You'll all take orders from me.
For my 20 years in my career, I will do my best!
Tomorrow, I will inform my dad to buy an island for me.
Feeling so great...So great!
"Ah-ho-u-e-da" (Stupid Ueda).
I guess he wouldn't be helping me.
Ah-o-u-e-ji.
Ah-o-u-e-zu.
Ji-ro-u-bo-ku.
Ji-ro-u-bo-ke.
Ta-me-u-e-zo.
Ta-me-u-e-da.
Ba-ka-u-e-zo.
Why did he leave alone to guess?
You this stupid Udea!
All Japanese alphabets are incorrect.
You should at least notice your surrounding.
That Dr. Ueda won't come.
He died from your curse.
You're lying.
It's useless to go through all the syllables like that.
We've already tried it.
Un-un-un-un-un.
And we still couldn't open that door.
That is why we brought you over.
The four of us took 20 years.
Let's go back now.
Don't make any noise.
Yabe!
Now they've found us!
There's Yamada Naoko!
Yamada Naoko, you are completely surrounded!
Come out!
Why?
She ran away!
Stop!
This is it, Yamada.
Yabe, why are you trying to arrest me?
Stop playing dumb. Aren't you one of them?
They're a dangerous spiritualist group.
Is that why you are trying to capture me?
That's right.
Surrender peacefully.
I'm going to rip this up.
What frightening powers!
I'm going to lose my hair!
You never had any to begin with!
Don't think you can get away with it.
Dr. Ueda disappeared too.
You're lying!
Mr. Yabe, do you see her on that side?
I'll burn this!
Will you be more trusting?
We've solved many cases together, haven't we?
She's right here!
Help!
Dr. Ueda died from your curse.
Dr. Ueda disappeared too.
It's my fault... that Ueda died.
"Hi-n-ni-yu" (flat breasts)?
Did Ueda write this?
So he's alive...
Hey, what's wrong?
Ueda...
you write this?
If you want to help, then go on your knees and say so.
Where were you until now?
You're the one who didn't want to see me.
Besides, I fell off that cliff and almost died.
What?
But was luckily saved.
But I had to desperately climb my way up.
Is it because of that curse?
Curse? Did you put a curse on me?
Go on your knees and apologize!
What's so funny?
That just proves that you have no powers.
I didn't almost die from the curse.
Someone pushed me over.
When I was standing at the edge of the cliff,
someone hit me in the head.
But I grabbed one of his shoe as I was falling.
They had you put a curse on me so that they could
kill me and make it seem like the curse did it.
But they didn't know where you were.
Maybe they have an accomplice within the police.
How do you explain the red and blue ball test?
Say the red balls are "x" and the blue balls are "y."
There are a number of strange things, though.
At the beginning, there were only two cups.
Then they added two more.
They should've just used a bigger container to begin with.
The white cloth that they refer to as the sacred cloth...
They covered me for a moment so I couldn't see anything.
That's it!
He told me to guess if it's red or blue, and
he only grabbed the red balls.
When I said it's red, then he placed it in the right cup.
When I said its blue, he placed it in the left cup.
Then the red balls will fill both cups.
Then he added another couple cups and only pulled out the
blue balls. When I said it's red, he placed in the right.
When l said it's blue, he placed it in the left.
Then the blue balls will fill both cups.
Then they placed the white cloth on me for a moment.
That must've been when they turned the table to 90 degrees.
Like the Chinese round table.
Then there'll only be red balls in the right cups
and blue balls in the left cups.
So you've finally realized it!
Hey! I solved it all myself!
Darn! How dare they trick me!
The question is, why did they want you to believe that
you are a spiritualist.
They wanted to get ahold of what's inside there?
Is there a treasure in there?
My mother must've ran off with the Kokumon treasure
She's a greedy woman.
If we hang around here, they'll find us.
I want to know how to read this.
His words of proposal were just wonderful.
Don't you want to hear it?
The word to break the spell is...
my father's word of proposal to my mother.
What?
A very classy...
"Ma Tomozuru" my beautiful woman.
The language of proposal.
It must be French.
He must've told her he loves her in French.
A Japanese word would not have done it.
Ju-te-mu (J' t'aime). That's just three syllables.
Isn't there a French word that expresses deep love?
I mastered the French language in high school
in just a year!
Think, Ueda! Do your best!
Je-te-e-i-mu (Je t'aime).
Ma-ji-na-no-ka? (Is this for real?)
That's five syllables!
Watch again.
Je t'aime (I love you).
Na-n-da-ko-re? (I don't believe this).
That's five syllables too!
Let's be in synch here.
Je t'aime (I love you).
It's a doll!
"I created this with my spiritual powers."
That's not it.
"When the tribe meets near destruction..."
"Open this lid."
"It'll give you tremendous power to survive."
"However, the first person who opens it will die."
Ueda, this isn't a treasure.
There really existed a spiritualist.
That's right. Open that lid.
Your duty as a shaman is to save Kokumon Island.
You have been completely surrounded.
Come out quietly!
They must be plotting something in there.
Everyone is going to get killed by them.
Please let me go!
They killed my mother!
Wait a minute!
Stop him!
Let's go after him.
What's that?
Gasoline!
You're going to all burn to death!
Stop it!
Who would've thought that you were part of them?
Don't listen to anything they say!
They cursed my mother to death!
He's serious about setting the place on fire.
Run!
There's no way out!
Wait a minute.
There's one way we can be saved.
I'll just open this lid.
When our tribe is faced with near destruction...
Open this lid.
Won't everyone be saved by this?
What're you saying? We don't know what's in it.
The first person to open it will lose her life.
Yes! Open it!
Hey!
It's all my fault anyway.
Ueda, don't get involved.
Stop it! Don't you get it? They want you to open it!
That is why they turned you into a spiritualist!
Come to your senses!
I'm sorry.
We live in different worlds, after all.
Thank you for everything until now.
Everyone, stand back!
Is it poisonous gas?
Don't inhale it or you will die!
This is "shibara" gas.
The power has intensified over the many years.
It's a deadly poisonous gas.
So, run, everyone!
The elephant statue...
Ueda?
Are you all right?
Am I alive?
The gas that came out is called "shibara."
It's heavier than air.
So it sinks to the bottom.
The person who opens the box will faint at the moment.
but since the gas flows to the bottom, she'll be saved.
Those who run down, will be out of breath, and in
turn inhale a lot of gas.
Those who had no intention of escaping will survive.
Only the person who boldly opens the lid for everyone
will end up surviving.
The tremendous weapon it referred to is that persons
courage and resolution.
So it had nothing to do with spiritual powers.
What about you? Why are you alive?
Didn't you run away?
Did you stay back for me?
Don't be silly. I figured out what kind of gas it is.
Poison gas...poison gas.
I almost inhaled it.
Let's go back in again!
Who are you?
You're with the Kurotsu branch family!
Arrest him!
Stop it!
Who do you think I am?
We'll hear about it at the police station.
Hey!
Arrest them too!
Don't you realize there's a Kurotsu accomplice
within your group?
For someone with an injured leg, you sure could run fast.
Aren't you the one who pushed me off the cliff?
Your leg injury is fake.
You're just covering tip for your lost shoe.
Here comes my best!
Don't be ridiculous! Why would I be with them?
You were abused by Kanai Genzo and Shogo for years.
Aren't you the one who stole the 20 million yen from them?
Then you teamed up with the Kurotsu family members
to kill those two who had suspected you.
You mercilessly cast the blame on your mother too.
In the end, you tried to burn the Kurotsu family members
as well as us in the cave.
Then, all who knows the truth, will be conveniently gone.
You created all the strange phenomenon that occurred here.
We have...
seen through it all!
You don't seem to get it.
We found the bag with the money in it.
When we asked who it belonged to.
Kishimoto replied that it was Kanai Shogo's.
Are you stupid?
What culprit would honestly admit that it's his?
Who are you anyway?
This is my I.D.
Wow, it's huge!
He's a police inspector!
Are you the one that was sent by the Police Commissioner?
I've been doing undercover investigation until now.
Yabe, was it?
I've witnessed your investigation abilities.
Just give up your wig like a man already.
What're you talking about?
Stop!
Udea, your pants is ripped by the knee.
How did this happen?
Darn!
It must've ripped when I tried to run away...
Run away?
Oh, no! I got caught!
So you just tripped as you were trying to escape!
Forget the details. That’s not important.
Anyway, I've figure out what kind of gas.
Let's go.
I'm going to stay longer.
I want to learn more about my father and mother.
What is that going to do?
All right.
I have something to say before I go.
So do I.
It's something embarrassing.
It's hard for me to say too.
Jet's write it on a piece of paper and give it to each other.
Let's open it when the other person is out of sight.
I'm going now.
"Why don't you do your best?"
Sensei, you better hurry.
If the tide recedes, we won't be able to leave.
We have an optional tour for two at an additional 5,000 yen.
We have a banana boat with resting chamber for you.
This is a marriage proposal...
Ueda!
Hey!
Ueda!
The local fisherman was saying that this island
Will be blinking soon. Shall we leave quickly?
Liar.
Je t'aime (I love you).
Don't say it aloud!
Je t'aime (I love you)!
We can ride the banana boat for an additional 5.000 yen.
Do you want to ride it with me?
No, thanks.
It's a banana boat. It's yellow and long.
What?
Banana boat!
Shut up!
Je t'aime (I love you)!
Stop it!
The island is sinking!
Banana boat!
